AI customer service agent that resolves orders, refunds and returns for ecommerce brands
After order verification, the agent can cancel, refund, change shipping addresses, remove unshipped items and start returns inside Shopify rules.
Drafts appear as internal notes in the helpdesk your team already uses, and Aide can take over an inbox once you take it live.
Aide Helpdesk provides an AI-first inbox with routing, SLAs and macros, while Aide Chat embeds on any site and on Shopify storefronts.
Every topic is set to AI Agent, Drafts or None, refunds wait for teammate approval, and an audit log records every action.

AI support agent plus helpdesk built for ecommerce brands
Frontier-model AI resolves tickets that span several tools and steps, such as holding a shipment, saving a subscription and updating billing systems, rather than only replying with text.
Email, chat, SMS, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and phone all land in a single shared inbox, and the AI answers on each channel, including voice calls.
An implementation manager moves your data, builds integrations, writes your SOPs and tests the setup with your team, so you are not left to configure automation alone.
Each brand or store gets its own AI tone, rules and reporting inside one workspace, keeping multi-brand support consistent and on-brand.
